Is Justin Bieber Becoming The Poster Boy For The Immigration Debate?

The face of the immigration debate has become – for the moment, at least – pop star-bad boy Justin Bieber.

His relentless streak of police encounters in the United States (full disclosure: he’s made the acquaintance of men and women in uniform in other nations, too) has propelled The Biebs squarely into the heart of the complex, emotionally-charged matter of immigration legislation.

His apparent flouting of laws, which includes – but is not limited to – trying to make an omelet out of his neighbor’s mansion by bombarding it with eggs and drag racing while in a haze of booze, weed and narcotics, has led to a petition on the White House's "We the People" website with nearly 200,000 signatures as of Thursday calling for Bieber to be booted out of the United States, say published reports.
